<p>They are a boy band who sing the praises of the Lord. They are all young, cute and perhaps not that bright. They can sing as well - but they are all not as innocent as they pretend to be. They are the Altar Boyz.</p>

<p></p><p>The Altar Boyz, now playing at the Greenwich Theatre, is a musical about five young men who sing with heavenly harmonies and who have divine dance moves - and they want to spread the word. These boys are: handsome with beautiful eyes Matthew (Liam Doyle); great abs Luke (Jamie-Ray Hartshorne); spicy and sassy Juan (Faisal Khodabukus); the one with great pipes Mark (Jonny Fines); and the Yeshiva boy Abraham (Alex Jordan-Mill). Together these boyz perform on the last night of their Raise the Praise tour. Songs in their repertoire include 'We are the Altar Boyz,' which is the opening number; 'Church Rulez,' 'Confession Sessions,' and for the finale it is 'I believe.' But before the evening is finished, they each are harbouring a secret that they've yet to tell the other boyZ. One of these secrets is NOT how Mark fancies Matthew - the whole audience can see this as throughout most of the show Mark pines for Matthew - even at one point thinking he's singing a love song to him when in fact Matthew is singing it to a lucky female audience member who has been plucked onstage. Lucky girl! </p><p></p><p>The boyz take over the stage and do they dance! A couple costume changes take place during the show, but it's when they are wearing white (virgin white anyone?) that they are their most handsome and honest and angelic - well, almost on that last one! </p><p></p><p>After five years and over 2,000 performances Off-Broadway in New York City, this is the Altar Boyz UK premiere. And the cast all do well. Fines has the best voice, Khodabukus has the funniest lines, again Doyle has the most mesmerizing eyes, and we are happy when Hartshorne shows us his abs, and grateful for the presence of Jordan-Mill. They all bring something to the show that makes it sparkle and shine. And the musical numbers are just divine. </p><p></p><p>You can't go wrong with this 90-minute show. And with the highest priced ticket at only £20, it's a bargain. Altar Boyz ends it run on October 18th.
